Schlafly’s second beer in its Ibex Series, called the Eleventh Labor, will release in select markets starting today. The Ibex Series began as a way for the brewers to try new and exciting ideas by using unique ingredients, barrel-aged processes and inspired styles. Eleventh Labor—a name inspired by Greek mythology’s Hercules—balances a great combo of fruit along with Schlafly’s sour house yeast culture giving the experimental brew a mild tartness balanced by an apricot flavor.
